I pushed the branch to launchpad. You can find it at https://code.launchpad.net/~peter-stuifzand/do-plugins/vmware.
You can use: Action: Start Virtual Machine TAB It will then list your virtual machines as found in ~/.vmware/preferences. It also works the other way around, but you need to know the names of your virtual machines. This was about three hours of work, so please don't use it yet, if you're not adventurous. -- Peter Stuifzand - http://peterstuifzand.nl On Thu, Feb 4, 2010 at 20:19, Fabio Mazanatti <[email protected]> wrote: > > This is something I definitely could use :-) > > I run VMWare Player with "export VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK=yes" at /etc/ > vmware/bootstrap, so every time I need to start a VM, I have to browse > to its directory.
